THE A.P.R.O. BULLETIN - MARCH, 1963

The March 1963 issue of The A.P.R.O. Bulletin, published by the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization, serves as a compilation of UFO-related reports, research, and commentary. The document covers a wide range of incidents occurring primarily in 1962, including sightings in Argentina, the United States, Ireland, and the Fiji Islands. Notable reports include the sighting of satellite-like objects preceding the Echo satellite, the observation of glowing red objects in Wisconsin, and the encounter of Barney and Betty Hill in New Hampshire. The bulletin also features articles discussing the likelihood of extraterrestrial visitors, with references to Dr. Carl Sagan's views on galactic civilizations, and critiques the scientific community's skepticism regarding UFOs. The publication highlights the recurring theme of UFO interest in water sources, such as reservoirs and power plants. Additionally, it documents cases of unexplained instrument failure in aircraft, such as the crash of a C-119 in New Orleans and an emergency landing of a United Air Lines Boeing 720. The bulletin emphasizes the organization's role as a long-standing research group and addresses the challenges of maintaining UFO research in the face of waning public interest and the closure of other similar organizations. It also includes administrative notes regarding the organization's move from Alamogordo to Tucson and requests for membership renewals to support ongoing research efforts.
